Uruguay vs Chile- free betting tips, odds & predictions

These are our Uruguay vs Chile predictions and tips:

Uruguay to reign supreme

To be fair, Chile have put up a fairly good run of results lately; they are unbeaten in their last five matches, with three wins and two draws. However, it’s worth mentioning that Eduardo Berizzo’s men have just three wins in their last 13 matches across all competitions, with three draws and seven losses. On the other hand, Uruguay are currently on a three-match winning run, with no losses in five games. It’s important to note that Uruguay have no losses in their last four clashes with Chile; and considering they have the advantage of playing at home, we are fairly confident that Uruguay will take all the points here.

Uruguay to draw first blood

Our next Uruguay vs Chile prediction is on the ‘first team to score’ market. We’ve already established that Uruguay have won three games in a row; it’s also fair to point out that they tend to score first when they play. In fact, the hosts opened the scoring in all of their last five matches. This has also been the case with clashes between these sides; as Uruguay registered the first goal in five of their last six encounters with Chile. On that note, we are backing the hosts to draw first blood.

A low-scoring affair

It may interest you to know that recent skirmishes between these teams have mostly been on the low-scoring side; as three of their last four encounters went below the 2.5 goal line. In the same vein, Uruguay have been involved in a lot of low-scoring games; as seven of their last nine matches featured less than three goals. Keeping in mind that Chile did not concede a single goal in their last three matches, we shouldn’t expect a lot of goals in today’s game.

Uruguay vs Chile match preview, analysis, and latest team news

Uruguay

After a disappointing FIFA World Cup campaign, Uruguay have gotten back on track these past few months; they’ve won three consecutive matches, and have no losses in their last four games. Marcelo Bielsa’s men will look to string up four consecutive victories for the first time since June last year.

Chile

It can be said that Chile are currently on a five-match unbeaten run. However, they have more losses in their last 13 matches than they have wins and draws combined. Eduardo Berizzo will hope to steer his team to victory as they take on an in-form Uruguay. It’ll be interesting to see which team will get the first points on the board at the end of this match.
